Boston metalcore outfit Unearth moves ever so slightly toward tunefulness on its fourth album. "This Lying World" opens with a galvanizing call-and-response session between guitar and bass that gives way to torrid, speedy runs. "Lie to Purify" is a darkened update of vintage Maiden. Frontman Trevor Phipps has a throaty but coherent growl; on "Black Hearts Now Reign," he uses it to rail against social injustice: "Lies strangle this world's hope/In quest of power."
